A home gym isn’t necessary to work out at home. You can do this exercise program using readily available furniture and complete it in one session or spread the exercises throughout the day.
Complete three sets of 10 repetitions of each exercise for a full-body workout. Any object you use to support your weight should be sufficiently stable. Traction is necessary during these exercises; socks on hardwood floors or tile surfaces, for example, may cause you to slip and fall.
